Artist Hilary Pecis designs trippy and busy mixed media landscapes using collage work, paint and ink work. Youre eyes dance around the pieces as you follow the bold colors eventually spotting familiar subjects and topics. “My paintings depict the postmodern landscape, where consumer goods are being hemorrhaged from the rock-like skeletal system. Evolution is depicted in the layers of rock, along with the gelatinous collaged pieces used to describe tumors growing exponentially. Images and shards from glossy magazine pages are reassembled to remove the familiar pseudo-event, which took place within advertisements and reposition them into a surrogate image within the drawing.”

Fear Expanded by artist Ryan Everson
Ryan Everson’s Fear Expanded is a striking exploration of perception and the subconscious. The work consists of large mirrored text sculptures placed thoughtfully within a landscape, creating a tension between proximity and distance. Up close, the letters are bold, dense, and physically imposing. Their reflective surfaces catch light, capturing the viewer’s attention immediately and emphasizing the weight of the words themselves.
